But as long as you're trying, I'm staying

Doing alright today. It's hot and sunny and I believe the insane winds have died down for the afternoon until it's time for the Samara Fiestas (aka rodeo) to begin around 7 or 8 tonight.

Best time of the year in Samara...for sure.

good thoughts from the bible as per a friend's post

But I tell everyone who is listening:
Love your enemies.
Be kind to those who hate you.
Bless those who curse you.
Pray for those who insult you.
If someone strikes you on the cheek, offer the other cheek as well.

If someone takes your coat, don't stop him from taking your shirt.
Give to everyone who asks you for something.

If someone takes what is yours, don't insist on getting it back.

So apparently an old dog even knows that you can't teach an old dog new tricks.
